Caution
!
In rare instances an eartip may come off in the ear canal when removing the earphone. If this should occur and the eartip cannot be easily removed, it is recommended that you promptly contact an audiologist or other medical professional. A professional can use blunt tweezers to remove the eartip.
Consult an audiologist or physician if you have excessive ear wax, difficulty inserting the ear tips, or discomfort after prolonged use.
Etymotic earphones exclude most external sounds. It is unsafe to use in-ear earphones while operating a motorized vehicle, operating machinery, bicycling or jogging, because you may not be alerted to potential danger.
Do not use at excessively loud levels. Research confirms that earphones that seal the ear canal allow listeners to listen at safer levels. Noise-induced hearing loss is a function of exposure time, the average sound level and the peak of very loud sounds. A sealed eartip and lower listening levels allow for longer periods of safe listening.
ETY•Kids are engineered for safe sound output, assuming 4 hours or less per day listening at full volume.
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not for children under 3 years

Selecting an Eartip
3-Flange Glider
large
standard
The eartips that are most comfortable are the best choice, but they should seal well in the ears for best noise isolation and sound quality.
When changing eartips make sure the eartip fits securely on the stem of the earphone.

Cleaning and Replacing Eartips
Over time eartips may lose their elasticity. For best performance and retention, replace 3-flange eartips every 3-6 months. Replace foam and glider eartips regularly.
To clean 3-flange eartips:
1. Remove eartip from the earphone.
2. Clean with water and mild soap.
3. Dry the eartip before placing it back on the earphone.

Proper Insertion
Important: Sound quality, full bass response and noise isolation all depend on a good eartip seal in the ear canal.
See a video demonstration at www.etymotic.com.
• Carefully insert the earphone while pulling up and out on the back of the ear.
• Twist the earphone up into the ear canal while inser ting, until outside noise is blocked out.
3-flange eartip: Moistening eases inser tion.
Glider eartip: Simply push into ear canal.
Removal
Remove earphones slowly with a twisting motion to gradually break the seal. Do not pull on the cable to remove the earphones.
